The 2023 Jones Mercury offers a variety of riding styles thanks to the unique design and construction of this versatile, all-terrain binding. With the benefits of Skate Tech, you get a stronger, more natural connection to your board for better control and board feel, and combined with flippable straps, you can adjust the feel and flex of the bindings depending on the style of riding you will be doing that day. Position the strap higher on your boot for more responsive feel for freeriding, or further down your foot for a more flexible, surfier feel. These versatile riding style options, matched with solid highback support, the updated Hanger 3.0 chassis and Power Spine Ankle Straps, give you all the drive and power you need while still being a fun, all-terrain binding.
Binding Type: All Mountain
Flex (1 - Soft / 10 - Stiff):
Highback: 6 / 10
Baseplate: 8 / 10
Straps: 5-8 / 10 (Adjustable)
Board Compatibility: This binding is compatible with 2x4, 4x4, and Channel mounting systems.
Base Plate: Skate Tech w/ Hanger 3.0
While regular bindings lose energy while the baseplate flexes, the Skate Tech design pivots from the centre of the binding and focuses all of your energy on the edge of the board, so your feet can stay more relaxed while still getting maximum edge hold and control.
The 2022 Mercury Hanger 3.0 is nylon reinforced with 30% fibreglass, combined with a Nylon and recycled carbon post and a 50% glass filled nylon disc for added strength and stiffness with reduced weight. The updated 3.0 features a wider footprint for enhanced board connection and faster energy transfer and has a lighter weight and lower inner lateral wall for better ankle mobility.
High Back: Control Flex Highback
The Control Flex Highback provides an asymmetrical, mid-wide, mid-flexing profile that gives a wider lateral side for added toe side support. A stiffer spine provides stability for carving with tool-less forward lean adjustment.
Buckles: ASYM Buckles
These all-new bulletproof asymmetrical buckles feature upgraded levers, springs, and a triple action ratchet design to increase entry and release speed.
Straps: Flip It Power Spine Ankle Straps + 3D Flex 2.0 Fit Toe Straps
The Flip It Power Spine Ankle Straps are a two-part molded ankle strap featuring a wider bottom for flexible comfort and a stiffer centre for increased response. The Flip It straps are reversible, which means you can position them with the majority of the strap above the buckle for more lateral support and response, or flip them down for a looser, surfy ride with more ankle flexibility. While the 2.0 toe strap has been redesigned to be slightly stretchy for max comfort, durability and response to fit any boot shape.
FREERIDE MODE
Position the wide half of the strap above the buckle for more lateral support and board response. Use Hard Bushings for maximum board response.
SURF MODE
Position the wide half of the strap below the buckle for solid heel support but more ankle flexibility for getting loose. Use Soft Bushings for a looser, more dynamic surf feel.
Cushioning: Bushings
The Mercury comes with bushings that sit under the 4 binding contact points in your toe and heel. These diffuse board chatter, maintain board to binding contact, and dampen your overall ride. These Bushings snap out for easily customisable dampening and response.
Warranty: Lifetime warranty on baseplate and baseplate components. 1 year limited warranty on all other parts.
